Great Yarmouth, England (1990 – 2000)
Formed by Rob Dickinson (vocals and guitar), Brian Futter (guitar), Dave Hawes (bass), and Neil Sims (drums) in 1990, The Catherine Wheel debuted on the tiny Norwich independent label Wilde Club with the She’s My Friend and Painful Thing singles. Though inspired by the likes of Echo and the Bunnymen and the House of Love, even the band’s earliest recordings strayed from being derivative. Those singles earned them a spot on John Peel’s BBC show. One listener was famed producer and “non-musician” Brian Eno, who was delighted enough by what he heard to phone the band’s manager up and express admiration. Eno, who had his Opal label at the time, threw his hat into the ring of people wanting to release the band’s future material.
